...TOURED the T.V. studio where the PTL Club is filmed. The other tourists gushed--starstruck over the baby blue carpet and the gazebo set where the gospel singers perform. They were awed by the barn-like room where the Heritage USA congregation prays on Sunday (presumably to the T.V. cameras dominating the middle of the room...

The cupola- topped shingle-style studio that Mark Simon designed for a Long Island beachfront is something of a contortionist folly: it jams all the moves of a mansion into a building the size of a gazebo. But in its earnest eagerness to please, the little building is more cute than contentious.

He showed me a photo of a little gazebo he had built over the summer. I in turn revealed that I wanted to be a writer, that I wrote compulsively, and that I had daydreams about being on Carson and Letterman.

...stronger seasons, the consistently superb sets have been the real standouts. Michael Yeargan, the set designer for the gorgeous King Stag, has created an elegant English courtyard, complete with gazebo and statuary, that Broadway would have had difficulty matching at twice the budget. It's a pity that the ART techies don't get their own curtain call for a season of amazing work; they deserve it more than a number of the actors who have appeared on their stages...
